Charly Suarez.

DAVAO CITY -- Charly "King's Warrior" Suarez of San Isidro, Davao del Norte is coming back in the professional boxing after a short stint in the 30th SEA Games.

The 31-year old Suarez won the gold medal in the SEA Games held in PICC, Pasay.

Now Suarez, a super featherweight orthodox boxer is back in pro boxing with a record of three wins - all knockout with no loss or draw.

He will be fighting Dave Barlas of Gen. Santos City on Feb. 7 at Ilocos Sur under the promotion of Cucuy Elorde of UKC Pro Boxing Edition.

Suarez started his pro career in 2019 with a TKO in the 2nd round against Ernesto Cagampang of Davao City last Jan. 16 in Cagayan de Oro.

He followed it up with a 2nd round knockout against Justin Cabarles of Digos last March 5 to win the vacant MinProBA lightweight title in Brauli Dujali, Davao del Norte.

Suarez then TKO'd Virgil Puton of Polomolok in the 1st round last Aug. 24 in Manila.

Barlas, on the other hand, won two out of three bouts last year.
The 21-year old orthodox boxer first won by a knockout over Alvin Bais of Cotabato in the 2nd round last Feb. 13 in Buluan, Maguidanao.

But he got lost by a unanimous decision to Aljum Pelecio of Misamis Oriental last May 23 in Tv5 Studio, Quezon City.
Barlas won again in the 3rd fight against Rodel Tejares of Bukidnon by a unanimous decision last July 11 in Malungon.
